1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Spider Veloce Racer

This 1965 Giulia 1600 Spider Veloce was converted for vintage race use in 1996, and has since seen track time all over Europe including at the Nurburgring, Spa, Zolder and Hockenheim. Said to be competitive, fast, and well set-up, the car looks good in photos and has FIA papers dating from 2007. Find it here at Black & White Garage in Berkshire, England for 49,500 GBP (~$84,035 today).

EliH, Yeah, you’re probably right – at least the fuel tank on this one doesn’t stick out where the back bumper should be. But that roadster really LOOKED like the kind of racing sports car I aspired to as a kid.

I know of a similar car here in the US (minus a hardtop) for sale with the bonus of having it’s original engine in addition to the race motor currently installed, similar pricing if anyone is interested. This car looks decent enough, remember there where only 1091 Giulia Spiders ever built 64-65 so I think the pricing is pretty good. A really clean one in original kit as the English would say might fetch north of $130K.
